Malcolm the rabbit
I am looking for a calm, friendly, and reliable Personal Assistant (PA) to support me with appointments, home admin, everyday tasks, communication, and building confidence with social outings. The right person will be patient, kind, and steady, and will understand that trust can take time to build.
About Me
I enjoy seeing and spending time with my family.
I like animals, especially my rabbit Malcolm.
I enjoy my garden, gardening, plants, and learning about them.
I like garden centres, gardens, the seaside, art and crafts, DIY, cinema and musicals, and going for coffee in familiar places.
I used to enjoy drawing and reading and would like support to gradually reconnect with things I enjoy.
What I Need Help With
- Booking, arranging, and supporting me to attend appointments such as medical, hospital, dentist, optician, autism support group, and vets’ appointments.
- Getting and arranging prescriptions when needed.
- Liaising with Yorkshire Housing Association on my behalf, including reporting repairs and supporting me to have them completed.
- Support with utilities, meter reading, communicating with providers, and changing suppliers where needed.
- Support finding or changing internet and mobile phone providers.
- Help understanding or responding to post, forms, and paperwork.
- Practical support at home, such as changing the bed, hoovering, sorting paperwork, cupboards, and drawers, and helping with heating controls or instructions.
- Support in environments where I may experience sensory overload, including help with communication and asking for things.
- Support to manage physical and mental health and reduce the risk of hospital admissions.
- Support visiting family, shop for things I need, and build up gradual social outings.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
